a pre-diagnosis. Like, if staying off lactose and taking probiotics and fiber works then you don't have to be tested for IBS. Most doctors will take you off dairy when you mention digestive problems as a first step and with further problems go ahead and give you more tests to see if you have IBS. Make sure to be proactive and journal your results and do what is recommended then if you still have problems your doctor can proceed if necessary. Good luck!

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
